Producing and Recycling Process of Glass Container
The diagram describes the way in which the glass container, such as bottles, are manufactured and recycled.
Overall, there are 9 steps. The producing process consist of 4 steps, beginning with the mixing materials and ending up with the glass container. The recycling process consist of 5 steps, beginning with the collection of used glass bottle and ending up with the moulding into new products.
First, sand, soda ash, limestone, and other chemicals are mixed to make the base mixture. Next, the mixture is heated in a glass furnace at approximately 1500oC. Before the glass container is finished, molten glass is blown.
The used glass containers are collected as the first step of recycling process. After they are collected, they are sorted based on its color. Once they have been sorted, they are washed to remove impurities. Subsequently, the glass containers are crushed and melted into liquid glass. Finally, the molten glass is moulded into mould to produce the new glasses containers.
